This is a question Grandparents

My awesome grandad flew in Wellingtons in the war. Damn, those shortages were terrible. Tell us about brilliant-stroke-rubbish grandparents.

My Great-Grandad Victor was the greatest liar of WWII.
Some of his spurious achievements:

*Did Winston Churchill impressions for the beeb when the great man wasn't available.

*Nearly shot Hitler, but his trigger got stuck.

*Borrowed, and posessed until the day he died, Montgomery's Trenchcoat.

*Lifesaved Tommies from the Normandy landings across the channel, two at a time, swimming on his back, one under each arm

*Whilst lifesaving Tommies, bagged a u-boat by swimming up to it and dropping a grenade down the periscope.

These stories were all told to my uncle when he was at a credulous age. Or at least my uncle said they were. But I can't be sure because Bullshitting is a fine old family tradition.
